About this special evening...

Kenn Kaufman Presents:
Discovery and Rediscovery: How Birds Motivate
​And Inspire Us

When explorers head into the unknown, when researchers launch a new study, or when birders go out to check the local park, we all have something in common: the desire for discovery. The ever-present chance of finding something new is a grand motivating force and a source of inspiration. As Black Swamp Bird Observatory celebrates 30 years of discoveries about the resident and migratory birds of this region, Kenn Kaufman will reflect on the roles of discovery, rediscovery, and wonder in our own lives.

Evening program includes:
- Appetizers and cocktails overlooking Lake Erie (cash bar)
- Plated Dinner 
- Reflections of the past. Visions for the future, Kimberly Kaufman, Executive Director
- Live auction of Zeiss Victory SF Binocular, Trip to Canopy Tower in Panama,
​Fly Fishing Trip, and MORE!
       - Fund the Need - Help BSBO build a brighter future for birds and birders 
​Kenn Kaufman, Keynote & Book Signing 

*Birding / Casual attire is appropriate

With thanks to our generous event sponsors...
